First of all, last week I posted about inserts in wedding invitations and asked for your opinions.
Who knew that this would bring out the OPINIONATED in all of you!! I didn't just get comments, I got novels. After much thought I have decided to...
It was such a fun weekend with Lolo and Skyler home. They are so excited! This is partially what we did...
Went to the florist to pick out flowers. None of these Lillies or the MOB will have to enjoy the play by play from a hospital bed, major allergies to these beauties. Almost killed me to take the picture.
Went to the Tux shop, no we aren't getting brown tuxedos, just threw this is in to make Lauren mad at me.
We showed Skyler Grandma & Grandpa's back yard where the reception will be held. I forgot to take pictures of all the grass. He seemed to like it.
The bridal shower was the ultimate! So elegant and so fun! Check out the desserts, and there were pink & brown dipped strawberries, so yummy!!
See's candy shower favors. Yum.
Skyler got the inquisition from friends and family. He was a great sport!
In amongst all the fun, we managed to sneak in a dental exam. Dr. Dad used the light from Jeff's cell phone. Hi-tech huh? He needs a filling on #19.
SO NOW....
We are in full swing Wedding Mode.... It has taken over our home. We get a delivery a day, seriously.
This is the "Wedding Closet".
In here we have the paper china balls, the plates etc.. the frames, the votive holders, the invitations, and the start of a lot of 7-Up. I can only buy 10 at a time. Bummer.
This is the wedding living room, with 20 cases of Jones Soda stored in it. Also organza, pictures, ribbons etc....it adds a lovely ambiance to the room. I'm sure everyone would like to decorate with cardboard like us.
This is the invitation station. Here we are tying bows, adding pictures, addressing inner envelopes, affixing stickers, etc. My friend Vicki and I got through 90 tonight. 1/3 of the way. We were so pooped we had to go get ice cream after. That's what good friends do, they share the work and the calories.
How cute is this? LOVE THEM!! The bride and groom love them too! More bow tying, yippee.
NOT add "we are registered at..." inserts to the invitations.
Coming attractions next week...the BEST of THE BLOGGING SHOWER !

That backyard is beautiful. I can't wait!
Oh you know how we LOVE the updates. But my absolute favorite was Skyler at the Formal Inquisition. You weren't kidding! Glad he passed, that could freak anyone out.
Everytime I see you post about the wedding it makes me think "I have 3girls no more than 20 months apart" I am going to be WAY busy in about 20 years!
Yay! Love Wedding Wednesday! Everything looks so fun and gorgeous!
I'm with Paige! I LOVED that there was a formal inquisition! You know how to do things correctly 'round there! Is it just me or did he look a little stressed in the picture?
The backyard for the reception looks beautiful!
So fun! I know you are busy, busy, busy!
Whoa! the food at the shower looks amazing!
What's with the pink boot?
Everything looks wonderful! I can't wait to see pics of it all pulled together.
What a fun time! You sound very busy, but your daughter will appreciate it. :0)
Yay wedding stuff! The pink cowboy boot with the flowers set my heart a flutter!
I have an enrichment night with a cowboy theme coming up, I'm totally stealing the boot with flowers idea.
That pink cowgirl boot has me raring to come. Love the rootbeer and the cover is great. The shower looks like a once in a lifetime party. Sure was mad about the wildfire near our house. We were grounded and on alert for two days. Could have been worse. Wild mountain lions couln't keep me away from the wedding. Can't wait. Love horseyaunt.
Thanks for the great pictures. I almost felt like I was right there enjoying the party with everyone else. I wish I could've been there!
It looks like you've made some great decisions and everything is coming together really well! You should be very happy with how it's turning out!
I could get lost in the "Wedding Closet"!!!! Counting the days girl, it's going to be so much fun.
So, will the "cliff" diver in the picture also be part of the wedding reception entertainment?
It looks like a lovely place to hold a reception. Good luck with all that bow tying!
The Jones soda turned out so cute. This brings me flash backs of preparing for yours and Rosie's showers when I was a kid.
This is so exciting!
